Description
Dead Seem Old - They Won't Find Us
Dead Seem Old is a London-based indie/pop project created by London songwriter/artist Thom Wicks.
Wicks’ approach is one of child-like exploration and experimentation, and he often only uses a cheap flamenco guitar and a four-track recorder to demo material.
He wrote debut single ‘They Won’t Find Us’ in a hotel room while traveling in Indonesia, and recorded the song in collaboration with drummer/producer Javier Weyler (Phil Manzanera/Stereophonics), under the agreement that they wouldn’t use any sound which didn’t evoke either of two of Wicks’ key influences – Grimm fairy tales and 1960s instrumental surf music.
